Hino da Espanha - Marcha Real Espanhola (Versão 1928)

The 'Marcha Real Española' or the Royal March, is the national anthem of Spain, and the version from 1928, which includes lyrics, is a powerful expression of national pride and unity. The anthem, as performed by 'Hinos de Países', is not just a musical piece but a patriotic call that resonates with the history and spirit of the Spanish people. The lyrics begin with a rousing '¡Viva España!' (Long live Spain!), which is a common cheer of support and celebration of the nation. The call to 'Alzad los brazos' (Raise your arms) is an invitation to the Spanish people to embrace their country's resurgence and to take pride in their collective identity.

The repeated lines 'Gloria a la Patria' (Glory to the Fatherland) emphasize the reverence for the nation, suggesting a continuous and unwavering path 'Sobre el azul del mar / El caminar del sol' (Over the blue sea / The walk of the sun), which symbolizes Spain's historical maritime power and the hope that the nation will continue to follow a path of progress and enlightenment. The anthem's reference to 'Los yunques y las ruedas' (The anvils and the wheels) evokes the country's industrial strength and labor, uniting the people in a common 'himno de la fe' (anthem of faith), which could be interpreted as faith in the nation's future.

The anthem concludes with a vision of a 'vida nueva y fuerte / De trabajo y paz' (new and strong life / Of work and peace), suggesting a future built on the foundations of hard work and peaceful coexistence. This vision is a call to action for the Spanish people to stand together and sing in unison, celebrating the resilience and vitality of their nation. The 'Marcha Real Española' is not just an anthem; it's a testament to the enduring spirit of Spain and its people, encapsulating their hopes, strength, and unity.
